Providing support to startups

To this end, CIIE aims to build and share resources including space and infrastructure, access to business support services, seed funds, mentoring and training programmes to enhance the skills of entrepreneurs.
Fostering culture of innovation and entrepreneurship
CIILE will work towards fostering a culture of innovation among students and faculty of educational institutions by organising initiatives/events, Startup-fests, idea competitions, startup boot camps etc. These will encourage students and faculty to work on new ideas, which could later be converted into successful business ventures.
Building an entrepreneurial ecosystem
An effective entrepreneurial ecosystem requires active participation of multiple stakeholders, including business, policymakers, educational institutions, social networks and other civil society actors. CIILE will nurture this ecosystem by bringing together start-ups, industry mentors, eminent academicians and researchers.
